With a K20 that thing would be mad. Remove the hybrid/electrical gubbins and it'd go like stink; Curb weight from the factory is about 1200 Kg, I'd say a good 200 Kg is electrical garbage. The power to weight ratio would be reasonable. I :drool: just thinking about it.

Always liked the CR-Z's shape. It's guts? Not so much.

I've grown fond of this particular series of GTO again recently, probably because I tried GTA V on a friend's console and got the opportunity to screw with the Albany Buccaneer at LS Customs. Good God they look fine in dark colors. Especially dark/borderline iridescent purple.

Denizens of TDuck! I applaud you.

The title of this thread reminds me of this: :bparty: Happy birfday, as we say here in west London. Many the lord give you many beers and mad skids, not in that order obviously :P

DIABLO you are needed! Do we wash goats that have wings?

That's a really nice Schwartzer. Probably my favorite out of all the cars you've shown so far. So clean.

I swear we should be using S**n™ instead of actual dates and times because history has a habit of repeating itself and so do we. Also @Harley I'm expecting a significant amount more cars, and parts. The problem is, that should have been the dev's plan right from the get go X_X At this point NextCarGame has more of my attention.

I hear that. SE - R/T 350 conversion. Article here

I may have just had a small accident. Maybe. Just a little one.

The use of 'this' as a term in its self and out of context is generally considered on this forum as a medium of agreement. I 'agreed' with your earlier statement despite having owned both PS and PS2 consoles in my (however short) time. I wasn't grilling you for the statement at all :P

This.

You don't really have to spend in advance. In your position (which I'm not BTW because I only have a PC) I'd have banked all the dough I had on me and waited for those two installments, then banked those too.

No worries; I don't dream. Well, maybe I just don't remember my dreams :P

:bump: Payday 2 actually has a pretty good soundtrack to it. Just a shame that I turn it off to hear the guns better :)

http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51422/some-more-details-on-grand-theft-auto-online.html Read beneath the first set of bullet points. R* have a conservative estimate of a two million player peak during the first 24 hours and are beefing up their servers to cope with the demand as we speak, however I wouldn't hold out too many hopes. Even at that figure I can almost guarantee you connection problems as people from around the world try to hook up to their respective server banks. I say this not to deter you, but just to ensure that you keep this in mind as you curse R* for producing such a wonderful and popular game :P

Game on/off, cars on/off, sanity on/off etc, etc.

What's the limit on the render distance, and will there be a significant amount of pop-in? What platform(s) will be used to distribute the game? A rough idea on how many DLC packs (if any) will be released? Is there an opportunity for attaining extra content not paid for initially (such as DLC) without spending large quantities of moolah? Will community opinions be taken on-board, and problems brought to your attention solved? Can we get a rough idea of recommended PC specs before-hand? How long is the games projected lifecycle? Will you be providing bug fixes, support and updates during that entire time? That is what I have for the moment. Some are more important than others.

It's the name of a fictional character that I'm currently writing a story about, as well as a play on the pronunciation of V8.

Been getting into more E-Dubble recently. Watch at your own discretion, the videos do contain profanity. Song dumping FTW

Naturally for a PC gamer, I'm feeling the need for more power and to be entirely honest I had very little of it to start off with. Check my profile if you'd like to see what I mean. This comes after suffering rather substantial frame rate issues on various titles and wishing to 'get with the times' so to speak after witnessing the announcement of the next-gen consoles. Moving onward, I have another issue. I don't have a job at the moment, my income is mostly bank transfers from parents, relatives etc. for large occasions or otherwise. This means that I have a minimal budget(of about 300 to 400 sterling and no higher) and as such I shall be re-cycling/re-using much of my old rig. Below is my shopping list thus far, if anyone can suggest improvements/upgrades or better deals, post them and I'll be sure to look into them.

That may be a while away though.
